Granny afghan

The granny square afghan is done: I've sewn all the squares together and finished it off with an edging. I didn't want a systematic approach and just mindlessly crocheted away, piling the finished squares up in a dark closet, so it was a surprise to me that no two squares came out the same.

My cotton yarn stash has not exactly been downsized after this project, as I had planned. I really had to buy some extra skeins... And then some more... And then one more just to be on the safe side. The thought of running out of yarn on a dreary sunday afternoon, oh, the horror...! Next project: I will make some mesh eco-environmentally-friendly-everybody-can-see-you-bought-tampons-and-for-heaven's-sake-don't-put-your-keys-in-them grocery bags of the leftover yarn.
